What have the artists said about the song?

When Kanye played it back for me [with Jamie Foxx on it] I was like, ‘That’s phenomenal.’ But what took it to the next level was when Jay-Z was like, ‘What’s up with that song that you and Kanye got? That ‘Slow Jamz’ song?’ I was like, ‘Yeah, he asked me to get on it.’ He said, ‘I think that’s a good look. That should come out as a first single for both of y’all.’ So Jay-Z was actually the one that put ‘Slow Jamz’ being a single into effect.
